Quotes after the Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final 2012

Friday, 07 December 2012

Congrats to Christian and Taloubet Z! Photo by Jenny Abrahamsson.Christian on his second round: "I had no other chance than to give it my all. It was no place to be tactic. I got my round exactly as I wanted, but with such competitors that doesn't mean that you will win. I got a super round and had luck on my side."

Edwina on being runner-up: "It feels pretty good. Itot has been in great shape for a long time now and this year was his best ever. He is 16 and it feels like he just gets better and better the older he gets. Since I had him he has won 3 million Euro so I think he is the most winning horse today."

Kevin on being third: "I'm really happy about Silvana; she jumps really good at the moment. I was lucky and could watch the other riders and see their rounds. But I lost time in the last turn so that is why I ended third."

Eleonora Ottaviani, from IJRC: "The IJRC is really united at the moment and tonight is a demonstration of how the organisation and the riders can give a successful class. This is a really important class to show how united the riders are. Next year the class will go to Stockholm and the year after it will go back to Geneva if the organizer will welcome us back."

Christian on the class and the show: "I want to thank the organizers for a super show with many good classes so that we can take several horses with us. Then I really want to thank Rolex that supports our sport throughout the year and not just here in Geneva. I also want to thank IJRC that supports us riders and for managing to pull of a class like this. That shows how strong the unity is in the club and we will hope it will be even better."
